The student: teacher ratio given does not reflect the actual general education class size. If your child is special ed, great school! They have lots of help for special ed students. However, the class size, with one teacher for the general ed classes, ranges more like 24:1, with the special ed students being taken out for sessions with special teachers/assistants. The general ed classes do NOT have the wonderful ratio the district would like you to think they do. Close Quote
